AMH >1 & Chlomid Success??!

My AMH is barely detectable @ .08 & my FSH is 21 :( The specialist Ive been seeing does not recommend IVF because she says its an extremely expensive risk with such low odds due to my #s. During my sis in Oct. she saw 2 eggs on my right ovary & 3-4 on my left, 1 being bloated that became a pregnancy that I lost last month. Last Wed. we went in for a IVF/DE consult. Both my specialist & the DE specialist said that I'm not a good candidate for IVF since my ovarian reserve is extremely low. They did say that if I wanted, we could try chlomid but to prepare myself for possibly more mcs. My husband & I aren't ready to fully give up on having our own bio child but I'm so fearful of loosing another pg. I'm desperately praying someone here has a similar story with success using chlomid or even IVF with an AMH somewhere similar to mine...

Hi, my AMH is .29, fsh 15, theses #'s are from June so may be lower now. My RE said the same thing about not recommending ivf due to high cost and very low odds since the quality/quantity of my eggs is not there. She did say that ivf with DEs is an option, however recommends continuing injectibes & iui since I still o and we only need to find 1 good egg. I have not yet given the DE process any thought, I absolutely have nothing against it I'm just not yet ready to give up on my eggs and need to process the idea that DEs may be my only option.

We do know I still ovulate. I did 2 months on clomid w/ no success, learned in sept that DH deploys in spring so I requested to move forward w/injects and iui, BFP in Oct, lost the baby in Dec. the testing from the d&c showed an extra chrom. She said too that I should prepare for the possibly of more mc's because my future eggs could have the extra chrom again.

I am going back to clomid in jan due to a work trip and not being able to make the u/s and iui apps for the injectibles so we'll try clomid and TI (luckily I'll be close enough that DH can come visit!).

How many round of clomid have you done? I've heard that it can take a few rounds....also are the injectibles an option for you?

Sorry, Not really an answer to your question, but we're in a similar situation and thought I'd share, I'm terrified but going to keep trying and hoping for the miracle egg soon (at least before DH deploys:)

Good luck to you in finding your miracle egg!

I haven't started the Chlomid yet. Actually, I still haven't started my period yet after my D&C last month. It's been 5 weeks..trying hard not to freak out why my period is taking so long to return. Anyway, I'm thinking of starting the chlomid in Feb. after I've *hopefully* had one regular period. I'm just really hopeful that someone with an extremely low ovarian reserve like mine can bring hope to me about having my own bio baby. What are the injectables you are taking? And IUI- is that insemination? My hubs sperm are all good- it's just my spoiled eggs that are the problem :( when my doc explained the chlomid, she said I'd be taking a trigger shot after the US shows mature folli's. Then I would take progesterone. I need to reread everything though because we met about the DE process at the same time. Good luck to you too, ink rules! I'm prayin that you too find that 1 lucky egg soon!

It can take longer to get AF after a d&c, my d&c was 12/5 and I know I got a ways to go but I'm anxious already!

I hope someone in this situation can bring some light/hope too, I just wanted to let you know you are not alone! I was actually really hoping to see some success stories here too.

IUI is insemination, DH sperm are just fine too but I wanted to give it all we've got! With his deployment and using the injectibles (follistim which is expensive $1,000/month which is why I requested the iui to increase our chances!).

From my understanding, Clomid is a stimulant that causes your body to produce the follicle stimulating hormones (fsh) for ovualtory function while follistim is an injection of the fsh to help the ovualtory function.

I am going back to the Clomid in Jan since I'll be traveling and it's only $10, that way if DH can't make it to visit to BD we won't be out 1,000.

Good luck to you....please let me know if you have success!!
